AVOCADO & ROCKET PASTA


The typical tomato pasta sauce can be boring at some point and trust me I know, I've been there. I am guilty of being a massive spaghetti pasta lover and eating it definitely too often... Hence, I though of changing something in my "regime", knowing the benefits of avocado I tried using that delicious fruit. And it worked! For a more defined taste I also add arugula as it has a little bit of a kick in its flavor. 
 
My favorite part of that dish is you actually eat less then when having the traditional, as avocado is a load bomb of good fat (unsaturated fat) so it keeps you full for longer because the breakdown of it is quite time consuming process.

SUPERFOOD SUNDAY: Avocado

I though of creating a series of posts devoted to different foods containing loads of  health benefits that not many people are aware of. Hopefully, I could share some of my knowledge gained through years of reading, research and experience.




Today's post will be about AVOCADO. I must admit I never liked this fruit before, I found it a bit tasteless and boring. The first time I tried it was in a vegetarian sushi roll. Basically, algae, rice and avocado. I hated it.
